Yet another slabbed fake. I love 3rd party grading
You can easily tell by the broken boxes on back.

Scott,
The lines that form the box on the back don't meet at the corner(s). Mike |

Unless my eyes are worse than I thought, don't these "Not meet"?

For what it's worth, the PSA cert entry reads "FRO-JOY BABE RUTH (NO LONGER GRADE)". Anyone who would be interested in buying this card would hopefully read the cert, know that it's a forgery, and avoid placing a bid in the auction. |

Here's a pic of mine which shows the closed box. I also think you can tell (in person) by the clarity of the photos. The dupes just don't have the crispness of the real ones.
We've discussed this before but the open box (as identified in the Legendary Photos) would indicate that the card was cut from the larger ad. Or more likely scanned from the larger ad for duping or counterfeit. Am I right on this Darryl? The closed box, along with rolled edges of the factory cut cards are one thing to look for for legit factory cut cards. If the card has an open box, theoretically it would be hand cut and come from the larger ad piece. Last edited by Jaybird; 08-19-2011 at 01:56 PM. |

I am going to disagree with you on this one Leon, I think it is fairly easy to tell when handled. I think the grading companies should grade these but they should hire someone that knows something about vintage cards. Dan.
